AUSTIN (KXAN) – Austin Police Human Trafficking Unit detectives have secured one of their most significant bonds yet in connection with Thursday’s arrest of a 22-year-old man on a child sex trafficking charge. Maurice Allen Scott is being held in the Travis County jail on $500,000 bond, jail records show.
Police picked up Scott overnight Friday after he dropped off a 14-year-old girl at an Austin motel after she agreed to have sex with an undercover officer for $150, the affidavit contends. “The undercover officer responded to an online advertisement in the escort section of an online website, commonly used to solicit for prostitution services,” the document filed Nov. 1 reads.
Detectives allege the girl told them Scott’s street name is “Hustler” and he ‘abducted’ her and took naked photos of her on his phone. “The 14-year-old victim stated that Scott would make the appointments and would be in control of the phone at all times…The victim stated she would have to text Scott ‘start’ when she began having sex and ‘finish’ when she was ready to be picked up,” the affidavit alleges. The document also contends Scott would take the money to pay for hotels and gas for his gold-colored Toyota SUV.
As KXAN reported Oct. 30, in a special In-Depth report, domestic sex trafficking of minors is a growing problem in Central Texas. Police say the girl in this latest case attends a local high school. Recently-enacted laws allow prosecutors to pursue first degree felony charges against someone alleged to have trafficked a person under the age of 18. Trafficking is defined as: “transport, entice, recruit, harbor, provide or otherwise obtain another person my means,” according to the document.
Scott has a prior plea deal settlement in 2011 for violating a protective order. Local crime analysis site Krimelabb.com reports before the latest arrest, Scott had been taken into custody eight times. Several of the arrests were for driving with a suspended license.
Recently, another Austin man, 36-year-old Chris Dancer, agreed to a plea deal of 15 years in prison for his role in a similar child sex trafficking operation.

Yet another case of "text and PM only" being a warning sign you're dealing with a pimp.

As a mom my first thought is where in the hell is a parent???

My preference is text or PM only. Yes, I will call if I MUST, but would rather not. No pimp here.

Glad to see this busted up--no place for this here or anywhere. That said,

Just for the record, it is relative easy for law enforcement and/or attorneys in legal proceedings to obtain warrants and subpoenas for txt message and other email-like materials from carriers and telco service providers. They can also go back and obtain call detail records for 30-60 days. The carriers and providers will normally have this in data archive for 30-60 days and courts can go back and ask for these records and txt/email message content.

What is difficult to obtain is authority to intercept of voice or call content traffic in real time, since that takes significant pre-planning to capture the call content as well as the billing records. Unless there are exigent circumstances involved, such as kidnapping, lives at risk or national security, these requests are not approved overnight.

I used to work for a telco and so I am familiar with these matters.

Never put anything in a PM or txt msg that you wouldn't want available to your spouse or law enforcement. If you are the target of an ongoing investigation, then all bets are off if there are approvals for electronic surveillance.

Don't any of you watch cop shows on TV. Just saying...

Stay Calm and Hobby On !

Due to liberal judges and prison overcrowding he will only get a couple years of street credibility.
